[@anthonymorris5084]

@@patm5369 Allow me to ease your mind. Throughout the 50's and 60's people were threatened endlessly with nuclear annihilation. In the 1970's we went through the "energy crisis". Scientists told us that we were running out of oil and things were dire. All kinds of media frenzy and mayhem ensued. Nothing happened. We were all told by scientists that we were going to starve to death by the 1980's because of over population. There were peer reviewed studies, documentaries and books written. Nothing happened. If you'll notice from 1940 until 1980 temps actually fell for 40 years. Scientist told us we were headed for an ice age and panic ensued. Then there was Y2K and more blah blah blah. I've learned several things: 1) Scientists, economists, inventors, soothsayers and humans of every stripe, have an abysmal track record at predicting the future. They are always wrong. 2) Humans are alarmist by nature. They are emotional thinkers who easily panic. They believe everything they hear. They are herd animals. 3) Technological advancement is always ignored. It never shows up in the apocalyptic rhetoric, and each so called crisis was solved with innovation. No scientist is saying we're all going to die. Most things associated with climate change are benign and manageable. Data today proves that humans have never been safer, healthier, or more prosperous than at any time in history. Have a great life!

In Germany there was also a catastrophe last week due to heavy rain. I hope that people here now understand that they're also not safe and that they realize what follows climate change. It's always easy to say that there is no climate change when you don't suffer from the consequences. All those people in countries that had nothing to do with it are suffering for years now. The rich countries have to change their behaviour!

You are doing important things in our time.Thank you for the systematization of information, since there is so much of it in our time that it is difficult to put everything together in your head and see it in different aspects. It was a discovery for me that large industries are switching their attention to us. Unfortunately, there is very little talk about climate change in Russia, although it occupies a large part of the continent, but it does nothing, our government is rotten and cannot solve issues of education, small salaries, medicine,not to mention the climate crisis. It has long been known that Russia is on the oil needle, I do not know how it will give up this. Even in Russia, unstable times, people can be imprisoned for rallies that do not please the government. it is very difficult to change anything in our country .

[@macbelle3rd108]

Thank you Jack for not giving up all these years in informing as many as you can about climate change. It's pretty devastating but what really comforts me is remembering the hope found in the Bible. Jesus had foretold natural disasters in Mark 13:8 (even pandemics, wars & food shortages). Revelation 11:18 indicates that climate change would get so bad that God himself has to intervene before humans ruin the earth indefinitely. So this was all prophesied, amongst other world conditions such as prejudice & corruption. Just as the Bible states, human government is a big failure so God will replace all human government with his (Daniel 2:44)

[@macbelle3rd108]

(My continued comment was deleted? I guess for sharing a link?) That's not to say we just wait for God's Kingdom to do everything for us. After bringing an end to human governments, He will show the righteous how to care for the Earth, just how He had commanded Adam & Eve to do. So we need to get a head start & do our part now, this is our permanent home (Isaiah 45:18) Just 2 weeks ago I attended an ongoing convention via JWdotORG (i can't give the direct link or i guess my comment will be deleted, look for Friday's afternoon program) & there was a 6 part series of how the Earth contains the ability to renew itself when given the proper help. It's amazing to have learned too that the Bible had mentioned these powerful demonstrations thousands of years ago. So don't give up & don't lose hope! We have a beautiful future ahead after human government is done away with

Climate change has nothing to do humans' feeling or emotions. It takes its own course. Humans are not different from other animals whose habitats have been destroyed by humans in the name development. Biggest problem with humans is that they have stopped killing each other, after the WWII. If you see the humans' past, you'll see that they were killing their enemies mercilessly. Battles and wars and lack life saving technology kept human population from increasing in the past. Then present era of development and technology is trying to save every human, giving a tremendous artificial value to worthless humans. These two factors have compounded humans misery on this planet, leading to mushrooming populations. Global warming will certainly destroy the human hubris which governments all over the world are epitome of. They are evil in essence.

I disagree on Canada being in the green zone where global change doesn't impact much. Winter here is our culture, our identity, and we're losing it. The melt of permafrost in the Arctic can boost by two times global warming. The forest fires you see now in Canada and Russia emits huge amounts of CO2 and destroy nature. The natives communities in Canada, that already lived through a genocide committed by the British colonizers are the first to suffer from global warming. How can the Inuits live an ancestral lifestyle when there is no more polar bears, whales and that there is no fuckin ice anymore. Global warming in Canada is three times as much as global warming in the rest of the world. The ice that melts here, sea ice and glaciers, are gonna rise sea level (only valid from glaciers) and make the world warmer with less reflective ice. The influx of clear water will dilute salt sea water and disturb ocean currents. Your life or death depends on how the arctic reacts to the uncertain future.
